Great module! Great reference! I am preparing to obtain a DEA license, so this module was so helpful. Thank you to the committee members!

I really liked this module. The text book is excellent and will be a great clinical reference.

This was a very pertinent and contemporary (Evidenced Based) unit. It is so beneficial to the Pediatric Primary caregiver!
